The Survive and Thrive Podcast

3. Judge: Friend or Foe?

Welcome to the Survive & Thrive Podcast, a podcast which complements the Survive & Thrive programme of events run by the Middle Temple. The aim of Survive & Thrive is to provide barristers in particular, but lawyers generally, with inspiration and advice on the non-legal skills they need to flourish in their legal careers.

So, if you are a lawyer, from wellbeing to time-management, and public speaking to body language each Survive & Thrive event explores a different aspect of making your legal career work better for you, with advice and expertise from our exciting speakers.

Our S&T podcast is where you get that little bit extra and hear our speakers in conversation. Please subscribe for forthcoming episodes.
